BUSINESS.
A Wholesale Poisoning of Dogs Inaug-
urated.

"
Within the past ten days more than
twenty dogs have been poisoned south of
the railroad track, and yesterday a valu-
able dog belonging to NJ. Wasserman, one
belonging to George Benton and one be-
longing to p. S. Cook went the same
way. The gentlemen last mentioned are
very indignant over the matter, and just
ly SO, for if there is one kind of business
in the world mere contemplate in a small
way it is poisoning dogs in a town like
this. 1t is claimed from what was seen
by some boys, a clue has been furnished
to the perpetrator, and should he be
found out, judging from the talk yester-
day, he would find himself in an unpleas-
ant situation.

has just been published hclr. 1t takes a
unique view of The tDndcnuy oG the labor
movement throughout the world The
writer clnns that in nearly every country
where discomfort was rife AMONG the
masses less attention is being paid 10 the
wages question now than formerly, and
more inquiry is being made in regard to
the relation Of the people Of the land. The
land question, in fact, is ROW the constant
factor in the labor agitation, whatever local
variation there may bc as TO addition de-
mands The Nihlists in their original
platform made restoration of the old Scla
yonic system OF community in land. They
left it in abGyapce for time, but are now
vigorously pushing it to lhc front again.
and the writer declares that the apparent
quicscenCe Of Nihilism lately is explained
by the fact that active members Of the party
arc dev0ting their energies chiefly to arouS
ing i'll the masses determination to strike
a blow at the proper time for restoration of
land mud the abolition of the on2rous tax
imposed upon village communities by and
